In the past, quantum computing was largely reserved for researchers, physicists, and scientists with direct access to physical quantum computing systems. But the game has changed, thanks to the cloud. Barriers to quantum computing are coming down quickly.

Today, cloud access (like D-Wave’s Leap quantum application environment) and improvements in quantum computing hardware, software, and developer tools are allowing programmers around the world to code on live quantum computers in real-time. Developers, students, and researchers around the world can now tap into the power of a quantum via their browser — quantum mechanical knowledge not required. Users and private companies have already built over 150 early applications on D-Wave’s computers in industries ranging from automotive to machine learning, aerospace, finance, and beyond. The quantum application era is here, and the growing quantum developer community is making it a reality.

In this session, Murray Thom, Vice President of Software and Cloud Services at D-Wave, will talk about the burgeoning quantum application development ecosystem, and how developers can start learning to code on a quantum computer today. Murray will also explore some of the early applications that developers and companies have built to-date.

GOTO is the enterprise software development conference designed for team leads,
architects, and project management and is organized for developers, by developers.
As software developers and architects ourselves, we wanted to craft the ultimate
conference.

The result is a high quality conference experience where a tremendous amount of
attention and investment has gone into having the best content on the most important
topics presented by the leaders in our community, staged in an intimate environment
needed to support as much learning and networking as possible.
